Passage A
Last Saturday, a strong storm hit our city. At 2:00 p.m., I was shopping with my mother in the supermarket. The sky suddenly turned black, and the wind started to blow hard. We quickly paid for our things and ran to the bus stop. But when we got there, the buses had already stopped running. We had to walk home in the rain.
On the way, we saw many trees fallen down on the road. Some cars were stuck in the water. When we got home, we found that our window was broken. My father was fixing it when we walked in. We were all wet and cold, but we were safe. The storm passed at 5:00 p.m. After that, the sun came out again.
